you fucking retards this is a tribute to nick drake, remember it for the one of the greatest tributes to the greatest modern folk artist... he was a deeply creative man who died before the world could truly show its appreciation or destroy the beauty of his music. deaths like his cement the works of an artist in time, making them forever untouchable and immaculate. stop being twelve and making a big deal about king of the hill; its one goddamn show, but nick drake was a full person with a legacy
@moosesgalore You and I are in total agreement about Nick Drake, but I can't be mad at anything that might get him new fans and some recognition. It's all he wanted :)
OMG BUCKLEYS ANGEL IS MY FAVORITE EPISODE :D ITS SO SWEET BUT SAD RIP BUCKLEY AND LUANNE AND KING OF THE HILL I MISS THE SHOW SO MUCH D: oh and chrisstevensjunior buckley died from running in to the super market and now listening to hank to get out of the store then had an episode for his funeral there was part 1 and 2
@chrisstevensjunior Well, the Mega-lo-Mart where Buckley worked at started selling propane. Buckley didn't know how to handle the propane tanks, so he would drag them, pulling them from their knob. One day, a gas leak occured, and the Mega-lo-Mart exploded. Buckley was inside, and he died.
MTV just celebrated their 30th anniversary, but my question is this: How can a station be called Music Televsion when the majority of their airtime hours is dedicated to ANYTHING but playing music videos?
@LoreYseult This episode of king of the hill where luannes boyfriend buckley comes back to life after he died and he was an angel and there was a scene where they jumped on a trampoline and they played this song and it really captured the emotion that both the characters felt at the moment.
Everyone is bashing me because I put my age on the comment i made. mainly because no one I know listens to this music at my age group!(Or anywhere whatsoever) But godd, you guys are so blunt!
@xcaitsx I think this song dates from 1985. The internet info on Jakanda reports that Jakanda dates from 1997 to 1998. I would think that Jakanda may have borrowed the hay um part for their song.
@BreakingDC Oh wow, you're 15, big deal. What do you want? Some thumbs up because this is an old song and you're 15? Get a life, just respect the song stop being a bitch and wanting some acknowledgement.
@BreakingDC What I'm saying is that you should have left your comment as 'this song is so fucking magical.' Why put your age? What do you get out of it by putting your age? Its a great song, no one cares about how old you are.
@McPigskin What he, or she, means is that the song works as a song, not just as a memory blast for people who remember it the first time around - the age being relevant for that exact reason.
@McPigskin what the hell is your problem? she was just saying how the song has such a large reach by putting her age. What do you get out of it by being a total jerk to somebody who was just pointing out how this song can reach all ages?
this is one of the reason why I love Youtube.. i remember as a child this and many other vid and always thiking,,"is really must be more" and later on when i lived in Japan and see other films and vid that there really was other verison, part of films that was cut off in films or only in Japan release... now as i am older i can watch them thanks for this/
I'm American but i always loved and appriciated great music like this from the 80's. 30 years later my IPod is still filled with all the classic songs like this...
i wish i could have lived in days like this, now, u cant even have a convo with someone without a tv, cell phone, or ipod present, and its strange that i say that because i am only 17 years old, but nobody understands life anymore, if they get their phone or something taken, people will seriously commit suicide! i do not get it
This song was written in honor of the late Nick Drake, who died very young and was extremely talented. Check out his song "Northern Sky," the inspiration for this song.
@MrTarryhoot The first clip was filmed in Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire with a second later version in and around Newcastle upon Tyne with some scenes filmed in Manchester. Hope that helps you.
@johnh23 Looks like Hebden Bridge to me. The church shown at 0;56 looks like St James's and then at various times you see a chimney, very prominent at 2.57 that looks like the Old Town Mill.
Estimated friend, if you want to listen again this song and an endless number of successes of the love I suggest you to visit Radio MUSICA PARA MIMOS - looks for his direction URL in Google ( search Musica para Mimos in Google)-. best romantic music of all the times in Internet, is great, is very good ...!!!
@PHARRAOH Totally agree. My kids have no clue what I mean when I talk about mtv today. I will put on vh1 classic when they are playing good videos so they can kind of see. but it is not the same. Miss those good ol days.
@willnotallow Thats just it, back then we did have to listen a long time to hear good stuff. It was all around us. Now the good artists get drowned out by the Biebers, etc.
very well put my friend! I really don't read most of the posts anymore because people ramble on about senseless things that have nothing to do with the songs. So I write what I feel and try not to get caught up with the Feeble minded garbage. Thank you for a refreshing reply! May your everyday life be blessed.
@mrbug825 this is why music is the bridge between heaven and earth...it speaks directly to the soul and bypasses all the bullshit of semantics and language
@mrbug825 I think the song saddens you because it's about Nick's suicide. As a survivor of my darling brother's suicide, I can feel this song in every bone of my body.

@bermudarailway Far from it! The scenery can be breath taking, the pace of life less frantic and the people warm without losing a certain down to earth quality.
Come on....we need stereo version with the official video.....anybody....please? I know thats a lot to ask. It only comes out of the left speaker on this one.....wack.
@jvidell Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire I believe.. yes agreat song from an era when Id moved up to Darlington, Co Durham from London - culture shock, I never regretted a minute of it..
This makes me tingle even after all these years. Reminds me of 1985 driving my mini. I regularly drive through Hebden Bridge and Todmorden and this video sums up the amazing northern scenery perfectly. Even in the rain the valley sides look amazing with streams running down them and sheep and goats clinging to the rocks. The lady is very cute too. Calderdale council does lots of walks in the summer around the area which are great( Calderdale Heritage Walks.
Oh wow just got a flashback (when they all jumped) of when I was 13 in 1985 watching this for the first time on MTV! Holy shit haven't seen this in years, thanks for uploading!!!
at the first opportunity went out and bought the album! =)
This song is about Nick Drake. Most people claim its about life in England in the 50s and 60s. In a sense it is but much more about how Nick Drake might have felt suffering from depression and insomnia.
Thanks. Was working abroad when this came out. Heard it on the local radio. Went straight out and bought the album! Only saw this vid recently on YT ~ very nostalgic!
@SuperNevile The church is the Church of St Thomas the Appostle in Heptonstall near Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire. Most of the video is filmed in and around Hebden Bridge (my home town).
@SuperNevile The church is the Church of St Thomas the Appostle in Heptonstall near Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire. Most of the video is filmed in and around Hebden Bridge (my home town).
Apparently the lyrics reference Nick Drake, always wondered who they were referring to ~ thank goodness for t'internet ~ put me out of my misery! This forms part of a brilliant album which I still play. Yorkshire and Spacehoppers ~ can't be surpassed!
I had moved up to a northern town ( Bishop Auckland, Co Durham) in 1983, from South London, so this song has a huge memory for me....the North, that land where brass bands play, chip butties are eaten, and real people live...
Someone mentioned they thought that this was Edinburgh. Sorry no! This is Nothern England for sure. I think Hebdon Bridge. Edinburgh is a bigger city and the Scottish buildings are different from Englands at least in the citys.
this is the rare version???? this is the only one i rem seeing years ago. i didnt know there was another video version. in fact, i dont wanna know. this is good enoughh for me.
I love this version. I've never seen it. It shows that their original idea was somewhat adhered to by the record company when they decided to make it a hit. It's not that far in look from their original version, but has the artists actually IN it. I heard that Roger Waters produced it. I always thought Nick resembled Charlie Sheen. Thanks for posting it connorstreet! Cheers!
@rachelsonfire Actually it was produced by the band with David Gilmour of Pink Floyd fame. David and Nick are good friends from way back. Nick also played in a earlier band with David's brother called "The Act."
I'd do the blonde but this video proves that not all blacks have natural rhythm.

Hearing this song again digs deep into the archives of my mind's memories when I was a teenager in the 80's. Oh how the memories come flooding back.
This song is just as contagious now as it was back then.

That church 'on the edge' looks familiar ~ is on the north side of the A42?

@SuperNevile The church is the Church of St Thomas the Appostle in Heptonstall near Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire. Most of the video is filmed in and around Hebden Bridge (my home town).

Apparently the lyrics reference Nick Drake, always wondered who they were referring to ~ thank goodness for t'internet ~ put me out of my misery! This forms part of a brilliant album which I still play. Yorkshire and Spacehoppers ~ can't be surpassed!

I had moved up to a northern town ( Bishop Auckland, Co Durham) in 1983, from South London, so this song has a huge memory for me....the North, that land where brass bands play, chip butties are eaten, and real people live...

Someone mentioned they thought that this was Edinburgh. Sorry no! This is Nothern England for sure. I think Hebdon Bridge. Edinburgh is a bigger city and the Scottish buildings are different from Englands at least in the citys.

I love this version. I've never seen it. It shows that their original idea was somewhat adhered to by the record company when they decided to make it a hit. It's not that far in look from their original version, but has the artists actually IN it. I heard that Roger Waters produced it. I always thought Nick resembled Charlie Sheen. Thanks for posting it connorstreet! Cheers!

@rachelsonfire Actually it was produced by the band with David Gilmour of Pink Floyd fame. David and Nick are good friends from way back. Nick also played in a earlier band with David's brother called "The Act."
